[QUOTE="trancejeremy, post: 968437, member: 924"] A few years back I learned that American Science and Surplus was selling lots of TSR products in lots - $5 for a random assortment of books, a 'grab bag". So I buy 5 boxes. What do I get? 6 copies of Birthright - Tribes of the Heartless Wastes (being a Birthright fan, I actually paid full price for this when it came out). 4 copies of Buck Rogers War Against the Han. Ick, is all I can say. Though I guess I have a lifetime supply of standup cardboard mongols. 4 copies of Country Sites. (I too, bought this book for full price, and absolutely hated it, and I managed to trade most of them.) I did get one okay Al Qadim boxed set, and a couple Ravenloft books. But I was pretty disappointed. D20 related, I would have to say a certain city book which is to not be named. Gah, I really hate that book. Everytime I look at it, steam comes out of my ears. I love most of the supplements/adventures for it, but the city book itself is just so aggravating to me. Don King. Don King? Don King!!! Grrrrrrrrrrr. Don King should not be an NPC in a serious RPG book. But I can't get rid of the book, because I find the big foldout map of the city to be useful. I also managed to buy a couple supplements twice. The most expensive was Nocturnum for Call of Cthulhu d20, though I managed to trade one for a couple of books I wanted. I also just bought Experts from Skirmisher press. However, my two puppies just torn it to shreds and ate bits of it. It's a cool book, but kinda expensive, so I'm not sure if I should buy another copy or just try to piece it together best I can.
